The future of the Charlotte Hornets is looking brighter with each and every passing game. That continued Tuesday night when rookie shooting guard Kon Knueppel made NBA history in Charlotte's 144-117 loss to the Miami Heat.

The Hornets may have a clear trade deadline reason why they opted to let go of veteran Spencer Dinwiddie ahead of the 2025-26 season.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. had 20 of his 28 points in the first half to keep up his hot-shooting start to the season, and the high-scoring Miami Heat beat the Charlotte Hornets 144-117 on Tuesday.

Former Alabama All-American Brandon Miller is dealing with another injury in the NBA. The Charlotte Hornets announced on Monday that Miller will not play against the Miami Heat on Tuesday night after he sustained a left-shoulder subluxation on Saturday. A subluxation is a partial dislocation.

There are nights in the NBA when everything clicks, and today was one of those days for the Charlotte Hornets.
